Whilst I am far from being a chav, I am seemingly as obsessed with Burberry (BRBY) as Essex's finest and today's interim results give me another chance to comment. Back in July I observed that 'my perception is tucking the shares away for the longer haul remains smart...just do not expect me to announce I have bought something at one of their stores' and both sentiments still seem bang on for me today...
Back in July last year I sold a big chunk of my holding in the luxury goods company Burberry (BRBY) holding. By the end of last year I had exited completely. More recently I have reestablished a position and even tipped the stock at the recent online ShareProphets event. Was this wise or chavtastically silly?
I like to think I have a little bit of knowledge about a wide range of matters but if I ever offer fashion advice on this page, then I really think you should ignore it. Fortunately my share-based love for Burberry (BRBY) has always been centred on those twin mega themes of the internet and China, rather than the new looks being developed by Riccardo Tisci and his team…
At the height of the recent market volatility, I wrote a piece talking about some shares that I would buy. The first name I mentioned was Burberry (BRBY), reflecting my thought that it was an inherently strong brand with good exposure to the still growing luxury consumption theme in China. I am pleased to see that today's first half numbers reflect this…
Well what a last week with fear - for once in recent years - in ascendancy and lots of 'worst week since February' statistics being quoted. As Tom Winnifrith noted in a recent bearcast the big honking issue is debt around the world, although tactically you can throw in a supporting cast of world trade angst, a bit of inflation bubbling up and a firm US dollar.
Hello Share Takers. So that upmarket clothes manufacturer and seller Burberry (BRBY) has been destroying its own stuff. It burned clothes, perfumes and other items to the tune of £28 million pounds in 2017. Why?
Back in January, I talked positively about Burberry (BRBY) shares and since then they have pushed up very nicely. Today's stock market is one where you have to be prepared to take a few profits too and that is my call today with the sort-of luxury goods name after reading through its first quarter trading update.
Lots of larger cap news today but I have to say most of it is pretty sh...poor quality, which of course says something about the wider market…
